Fans of the Game of Thrones series may be happy to hear about an upcoming MMORPG in development. According to RedanianIntelligence, the game is being created by Nexon. Nexon is known for titles like The Finals, Warhaven, and Kartrider, and more details about the project are starting to come out.
The game will take players to the icy North of Westeros, including iconic locations like Winterfell and The Wall. The story’s timeline is during the events of Game of Thrones Seasons 4 and 5, meaning players will likely encounter familiar characters like Roose Bolton, the Warden of the North, as well as Jon Snow and Sam Tarly at The Wall. Although other kingdoms may be featured, only the North has been explicitly mentioned.
This is all mentioned in the report, and the site is normally well-known for breaking this kind of news. The original HBO cast is not expected to return for the game, as it will feature a new voice cast attempting to replicate the voices of the show’s actors. The online title game will have a story campaign that likely offers a mix of narrative and traditional MMORPG experiences. Players will have the option to create their character, choosing between male or female. Interestingly, the protagonist’s counterpart will still have a role in the game’s narrative, similar to Mass Effect: Andromeda.
While the specific gameplay style isn’t clear yet, the project seems to share some similarities with The Elder Scrolls Online. Fans might have to wait quite a while, as there’s no official release date at this time. Based on typical development cycles for large-scale games, we will likely not see the release until 2025 or 2026 at the earliest.
